Christmas 2007 and 2nd Birthday

Eden celebrated her 2nd birthday at the beginning of January. She thinks that she is going to get the whole cake to herself in this picture. This is Christmas morning. She really enjoyed opening the presents once she understood that their was something inside of them for her.

Here she is modeling her new sheep back pack.

Playing in the Snow

This last week we received 10 inches of snow over night so we have been taking advantage of all the benefits of the cold weather.Eden enjoyed trying to catch the snow flakes on her tongue and she really enjoys sledding with her Dad. She also loved warming up afterwards with some hot cocoa.

Fall Riding

Halloween 2007

Eden was a Gypsy's performing monkey for Halloween this year. Her dad played the role of the gypsy.

New Members of our Household

These are the newest arrivals into our home. We now have the addition of four kittens that arrived on October 1st due to the fact that our little female cat Monkey escaped outside this summer. Eden is enjoying playing with them and she spends a lot of her time trying to capture them. As you can see in the photos, once she has caught some she won't let them go.

My old dog Sheila still doesn't know what to think about these little spitfires.

This is also a new but temporary arrival. His name is Guinni and he will be staying with our family for three months while his owner is in Europe. Eden has already initiated him into the family with the customary "doggy pile".

Reading to Boss Hog

I peeked into Eden's room the other day to see what she was up to and this is what I found. She was reading a book to her pet cat Boss Hog. Just take a look at the book that she picked out to read to him.

Colorado Fair

Eden really had fun this summer at the fair. This is her trying to help her cousin Breanna with her goat.
